  1. ECM and FI Tuning - Help, Tips & Tricks
    Howdy, y’all. Twice already my T100 has stalled out at red lights after only a few minutes of riding (5 minutes, tops). I took her in to have her chain replaced and when I got her back, the headlight is so dim I can’t see at night and she stalls at idle. Engine breathes to just below and above...

    Noob to the Forum: Apologies for laboring what appears to be a well trodden issue, but after scouring this forum, I am still light on resolutions. Bike starts fine and idles fine initially. After even a brief ride out of the neighborhood (or even a blip in the throttle) it will stall at the...

    Hello! I feel bad only posting in here when there's an issue, but I need help troubleshooting a recent issue. I took the bike to work Tuesday morning and it ran great. No noticeable issues at all. Driving home going around 75mph on the freeway, I lost all throttle power and had to pull over as...

    The folks and posts that I have seen on this forum have been helpful so far! Thanks! I'm hoping for a little nudge on an issue I have. In early June I bought my first Triumph, a 2012 Bonneville SE. Turns out it hadn't been ridden much for the past few years, and it has under 4,000 miles on it...

    So not a good week. Cylinder head gasket on the car gone, cant fix it for 3 weeks. I live out in the sticks. No prob thinks I , books the MOT for the speedmaster, drags it out, hops on , fires it up. Runs for a few seconds then dies with a pop (under seat, some sort of blowback from air...

    Hello all, I’m posting this to help other who might be experiencing the same issues the I recently occurred. My 2010 EFI (cable speedo) Bonneville experienced starting issues- having the ignition intermittently cut out mid-ride. With the key in the ignition, the bike remained dead with no oil...

    I have come across a new set of wheels for a T120. Will they fit my 2010 865 EFI? The spokes on my bike are a little tired and the new wheel set will cost about the same as having the existing wheel relaced even before I sell the old wheels.

    Hi errrrybody! I’m a new triumph owner but long time bike hobby wrencher. I acquired a 2014 thruxton a few months ago with 1,800 miles on it. Basically new. I swapped the battery out, added some fresh gas in and it started fairly easily. Ran for a couple days then it refused to hold spark. It...

    I recently purchased a '15 T100 from a private seller. I only did a short test ride, but the bike seemed to be working well. I trailered the bike home and when I tried to ride it the next day it was difficult to start and would die during idle. I took it to a local mechanic who replaced the...

    Hello everyone. I have a 2013 Triumph Bonneville T100, I'll give some back ground into the bikes history before I explain the main issue I found. Bought the bike Brand New. So I'm the original owner. Rode the bike very very little the first two years or so. Was last registered in 2015. Living...

    Some of you may have seen my earlier post about my starting and running issues on a recently purchased 2014 T100. Still not fixed, and I’m waiting for an appt at my local garage. In the meantime I put some Seafoam in the tank and have run the engine a bit. New development: it has been...

    Hello all! It´s a shot in the dark but given the knowledgeable people in this forum I hope someone can shed some light on my problem! So a few days ago I had the misfortune of someone stealing my ECU from my bike while it was parked in a garage! He was kind enough not to cut or strip or make a...

    Hi, folks! A couple of months ago, I came back to motorcycling after a hiatus because a doctor almost killed me. My first bike was a 1966 Honda Scrambler. I got her in 1968. I sold her when I graduated from college. In 1970, I got a 1970 BSA 441. That bike was stolen.... after it landed on me...

    can a efi head be put on a carb bonneville engine? Existing head is damaged beyond repair and cannot find a carb replacement for the right money but there seem to be more Efi heads out there. They have different part numbers but I cannot see a difference. Can I simply put an efi head on in place...

    Hey Triumphrat.net! I'm having some trouble with my 2015 Bonneville: The bike just stalls out at idle when the EFI "choke" is all the way in. Doing a proper start and allowing the bike to warm up does nothing to stop this. However, I can keep the bike alive in this position if I keep just a...
